Activities & Restaurants

Enjoy your weekend in Blue Ridge, here are some recommendations of activities to enjoy!

Mercier Orchards

8660 Blue Ridge Drive, Blue Ridge, GA 30513
, (706) 632-3411

The combination of U-PICK events, Bakery & Deli, Market Store, and Farm Winery, this is a great choice for an afternoon. Hardpressed Beverages are available year round at Mercier Orchards. Few wineries can claim that they grow, press, ferment, and bottle their own product. At Mercier Orchards cidery, they craft premium product that we can proudly label as Georgia Grown. Sam and I personally enjoy their cider tasting, apple picking and apple cider donuts!

Das Kaffee Haus / The Coffee House

612 East Main Street, Blue Ridge, GA 30513
, (706) 946-1111

Starting with an important water filtration system, which is maintenanced weekly, this coffee house brews Batdorf & Bronson quality. ORGANIC it is. So even your "regular" house coffee of the day was picked by hand and supports fair trade. Everyone needs caffeine right?

Swinging Bridge on the Toccoa River

You're in the South y'all!!!! If you believe the best BBQ involves low & slow wood smoking in a BBQ pit (not to be fooled by electric smoke like the others), then Mike's is your place. They are so proud of their BBQ that ALL of our BBQ will come to your table without any sauce because they want you to taste it before anything is added. Whatever you see on their menu, you can't go wrong. Their sides are some of their own secret recipes handed down through generations. Fastest take-out in town. They offer orders by the pound (meat) and pint (sides) for those staying in cabins or have the need for a large party get-together. Please provide them with at least a 24 hour notice when placing large orders.
